The before and after of Carmen Borrego that is revolutionizing the internet

After a personalized assessment at the Instituto de Benito center in Madrid, two coordinated surgical interventions were determined:

• Cervical lift performed by Dr. Javier de Benito, a new less aggressive technique aimed at tightening the skin, redefining the contour, and rejuvenating the overall appearance of the cervicofacial area.
• Arm lift with Dr. Morales, aimed at removing excess skin and improving the silhouette of the arms, providing a firmer and more defined appearance.

Lecturas assures, and they have decided to show even the slight inflammation that was still observed at that time. Inflammation that will completely disappear in a few weeks.

In this photograph taken by Lecturas, she had only been operated on for 9 days. It can be seen that the recovery has been excellent.

This combination allowed addressing needs in different areas of the body in a single surgical process, optimizing recovery times and overall results.

Carmen was operated on at the Instituto de Benito facilities in Madrid. The two surgeries were coordinated so that the overall session maintained high standards of safety and comfort for the patient.

Dr. Javier de Benito, the protagonist of Carmen's radical change, explains what the intervention he performed on her face consisted of:

"Carmen wanted to improve her neck, obviously that is the intervention we did. It was a neck that was not easy" -Dr. Javier de Benito

Carmen's neck became a real challenge for the prestigious surgeon in charge of her intervention, due to the anatomical peculiarities Carmen presented. According to the specialist, the main objective of this type of procedure is to reposition structures, resect tissues, and remove excess fat to restore definition and firmness to the treated area.

In Carmen's case, there was an accumulation of fat and a notable sagging of the platysma muscle, a muscular band located under the neck skin that can lose tone over time. This was compounded by a marked loss of mandibular contour, with abundant flaccid tissue in that area, which blurred the facial profile.

"The priority was to define," noted the surgeon. To define a neck that, due to its characteristics, was thick and would continue to be so, but to which a more harmonious and streamlined angle could be provided. To achieve this, the specialist made a small incision under the chin, through which he worked on the central area. This tiny scar (practically imperceptible after the first month) allowed the suturing of the musculature, creating a more defined cervicomental angle and extracting the accumulated excess fat.

The procedure was completed with carefully concealed lateral incisions following the tragus and hidden behind the ears. From there, the neck was detached from side to side and the musculature was tightened from the nape, in what is technically known as a cervical lift. The desired result was to recover firmness and redefine the lower contour of the face, always respecting the presenter's natural physiognomy.

Additionally, as part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation approach, the doctor recommended that the presenter undergo a complementary intervention in the glabellar area. The objective was to elevate and rejuvenate the periocular area, providing greater brightness and vitality to her gaze.

"I convinced her. She told me; Okay Javier, I put myself in your hands. I want to be well in 15 days" -Dr. Javier de Benito

This additional intervention was performed through endoscopy, a minimally invasive treatment, without bruising and with immediate discharge.

The results show a remarkable improvement in:

• Neck tonicity and facial contour, providing a firmer, fresher, and more natural appearance.
• Arm toning, with the elimination of excess skin and a more defined profile.

Two weeks after her cosmetic surgery at the medical group Instituto de Benito, Carmen Borrego has faced her fears again and entered the set so that the audience and her colleagues were the first to see her result, even before she did.
